Maldives President Ibrahim Mohamed Solih won the ruling Maldivian Democratic Party's (MDP) presidential primary election, the first time an incumbent has faced a primary challenge, according to preliminary results on Sunday. But his challenger, former President Mohamed Nasheed has not accepted the results reported by the party. Nasheed's supporters and representatives have alleged voter fraud and vote rigging in the contentious election in the archipelago off India and Sri Lanka.

Tunisia opened polling stations on Sunday for run-offs in a parliamentary election that drew only 11% turnout in the first round last month, an outcome critics of the president said undermined his claims of public support for sweeping political change. With political parties boycotting the vote, most candidates are independents and attention is likely to focus on whether there will be higher participation than there was in December. "I'm not interested in elections that do not concern me," said Nejib Sahli, 40, passing a polling station in the Hay Ettahrir district of Tunis shortly before voting was due to begin.
TUNIS, Tunisia (AP) — Tunisia's president and its shaky, decade-long experiment with democracy are facing an important test Sunday as voters cast ballots in the second round of parliamentary elections. Turnout was just 11% in the first round of voting last month, as many disaffected Tunisians stayed away and the influential opposition Islamist party boycotted. The runoff elections Sunday are being watched around the Arab world. They're seen as a conclusive step in President Kais Saied's push to

'Our teenagers think we're some sort of drug dealers' Two mums launch cannabis oil business worth around £125k from their kitchen table
Now, their business is thriving, and they sell an array of CBD products costing from £4.99 to £57.99

Two mums who made friends at the school gates joined forces to launch a cannabis oil business worth around £125,000 from their kitchen table.
It came after cannabidiol (CBD) oil made Samantha Day, 49, feel like the "dark cloud" marring her life had lifted, following breast cancer in 2017.
She then recommended it to her friend, Lorraine Clarke, 51, who had been struggling with her mental health.
Since first trying it in 2018, the friends, of Peterborough, Cambridgeshire, have become such converts that they have joined forces to start their own CBD oil business Hapi Hemp - produced without the psychoactive agent THC that makes illegal cannabis users high.

Former PA Samantha, who has three children, Matthew, 19, Michael, 17, and Megan, 15, with her contracts manager husband Gareth, 49, said: "People are shocked when we tell them we sell CBD oil. Our teenagers think we're some sort of drug dealers, but the benefits speak for themselves.
"For years, I experienced low moods and extreme tiredness, to the point where I could barely bring myself to get off the sofa.
"But within days of taking CBD, my energy levels were boosted, and my low moods disappeared – it felt like I had a rebirth. Neither Lorraine nor I have much business experience, but we both believe so passionately in CBD and want to help other people."

Samantha and Lorraine, who works in publishing and lives with her sons Oliver, 17, and William, 15, from a previous relationship, first became friends in 2014, after chatting at the school gates.
Lorraine, whose partner Allan Butler, 52, is an electrical wholesale manager, said: "At first we just chatted about typical mum stuff. But then we got on to the subject of mental health and all that we'd been through and we started to confide in each other.
"It was wonderful to have Samantha to chat to because often you can feel alone. Our relationship blossomed and throughout the years we've supported each other before going on to become business partners."
At her wits' end, after a decade dogged by debilitating health problems, Samantha's difficulties began in her thirties, with endometriosis – a painful condition where tissue usually found in the lining of the womb grows in other parts of the body.

She said: "I was in constant agony and feeling very depressed. My hormones were all over the place."
After trying painkillers and other medication to treat her symptoms – all to no avail – she eventually made the difficult decision to have a full hysterectomy at Peterborough's Fitzwilliam Hospital, in June 2008, aged 37, during which surgeons removed her uterus and ovaries.
Initially, her pain eased and her mood lifted, but her good health and elevated mood were short-lived, as 18 months later, she started feeling exhausted and miserable.
"I felt like I was walking around with my head in a fog," she said. "I always felt run down, like I was about to get a virus – but the virus never came.
"I felt guilty, too, because I had a young family to take care of – but I felt constantly wiped out."

After visiting her GP, Samantha was referred to a rheumatologist – a doctor that deals with musculoskeletal and autoimmune conditions – in mid-2011.
Around six months later, after a series of blood and body functioning tests, she was diagnosed with chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia – a long-term condition that causes extreme tiredness, muscle stiffness, brain fog and pain all over the body.
She was also found to have sleep apnoea, which occurs when the airway becomes too narrow during sleep, causing breathing to stop and start. Samantha was given a CPAP machine – a special device designed to put pressure into your airways to keep them open – as well as medication to control her pain, but she continued to struggle.

She said: "At that point, I felt so physically and mentally exhausted I could barely get off the sofa – none of the medication seemed to work. My laptop was my lifesaver, as I started researching ways to help myself and came across CBD oil.
"But, much as the reviews were good, I was just a bit too scared to actually try it."
Then, in another devastating blow, Samantha found a lump after waking in the middle of the night in late June 2017 with a pain in her right breast – which a biopsy at Peterborough City Hospital confirmed was stage three cancer.
She continued: "I was devastated. I didn't want to die, I wanted to be there for my children. I was determined I was going to beat it."
After eight rounds of aggressive chemotherapy, the 5cm tumour shrank and, in early 2018, Samantha had a lumpectomy – surgery to remove the remainder of the lump and its surrounding tissue – and four weeks of radiotherapy.
Seeing a light at the end of the tunnel, when she was mid-way through radiotherapy, she became determined not to let her other health conditions rule her life.

So, remembering her earlier research, she decided she was ready to try CBD oil – which was made legal in the UK in 2018, provided it is properly labelled, has been tested and contains less than 0.2 per cent THC- although the NHS stresses there is no guarantee that all products claiming to be medical cannabis, such as CBD oil, will be good quality, or can provide health benefits.
"I'd had a serious brush with death, and it made me realise I needed to help myself," said Samantha. "I didn't want to feel tired and sad all the time anymore – I wanted to do something about it.
"I started to take CBD oil drops every day and, within weeks, felt the benefits. It was incredible. I was like a new person. The dark cloud had finally been lifted."

Once her radiotherapy finished, Samantha was told by doctors that the cancer had gone.
She added: "I never got the official all clear as such. I still have to go for yearly scans to make sure it's not come back."
Meanwhile, Lorraine had been battling her own demons after enduring three tragic miscarriages and a still birth between 1999 and 2002 – sending her into a deep depression.
She recalled: "I suffered three miscarriages and then, I got pregnant again for the fourth time and I was six months pregnant when I went for a scan, the midwife told me she could no longer feel the baby's heartbeat.
"The baby had passed and I had a stillbirth which was one of the worst days of my life. The doctors did some tests to find out what was wrong – but they didn't find a specific cause.

"The experience triggered awful panic attacks. I'd be out walking and would suddenly have this horrific feeling that something terrible was going to happen."
Despite taking a high dose of anti-depressants, Lorraine continued to struggle with her mental health.
Her low mood was compounded by the fact that she also has premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) – a severe form of premenstrual syndrome (PMS), symptoms of which can include feelings of hopelessness, anxiety, anger and tension, difficulty concentrating, tearfulness, lack of energy and even suicidal thoughts.
"I was erratic," she said. "One week I was hyper and happy and the next I would be in a really dark place."
By 2017, Lorraine had reached the end of her tether and, just like Samantha had done nine years earlier, decided to have a hysterectomy.
But sadly, while recovering, she contracted a viral infection which landed her back in hospital, bedbound for seven weeks.
The delay in returning to normality took its toll on her mental health and she became consumed by panic once again.
Hearing about her friend's plight, Samantha suggested she try CBD oil.
At first, Lorraine was sceptical, but eventually she agreed.
"It was something I'd researched and considered before – I'm a sucker for trying a new product – but I was a little sceptical," she said. "Bit Samantha was just so passionate about it – it completely won me over. It didn't hit me straight away, but after a few months, I felt a lot calmer and was sleeping much better."
Determined to extol the virtues of CBD to others, in February 2019, the women joined forces and set up their own business, Hapi Hemp.

Samantha explained: "We were just two mums sitting around the kitchen table chatting when we came up with the idea, but we were determined to bring it to life.
"We tapped up our friends, family and credit cards and managed to stump up £5,000 each to invest. From there, we researched into CBD as we were determined to bring to life a product that was high quality, authentic and safe."
She added: "We wanted to up the game within the CBD industry – because there can be a lot of cowboys – and make good quality products.

"We didn't want to create just CBD oil – we wanted to create something with a more holistic approach, for women, that was more personal and made women, just like us, feel safe and happy to use."
Despite being new to the world of business, Samantha and Lorraine wasted no time in researching CBD oil suppliers and even managed to secure an investment.
"With coronavirus it's been a bit tough – but we've built the business from nothing so we have the sheer grit and determination to make it work," Samantha.
Now, their business is thriving, and they sell an array of CBD products costing from £4.99 to £57.99.
Lorraine said: "We sell all sorts of CBD oils and teas, which are blended with rosemary, chamomile and lemon balm, making them even more calming. We've recently launched a new product – a CBD super food powder, which is mixed with turmeric."
She added: "We would love to one day see our brand in high street retailers.
"CBD oil has given me a new lease of life and the fact we're now able to help other people is just brilliant. We're just two mums with an idea and a lot of passion, but we've totally transformed our lives and we hope we can do the same for other people."
And Samantha echoes her pal's sentiments, claiming that the oil has helped her to move on from her health ordeal and focus on the future.
She said: "Since I started taking CBD oil, people have stopped seeing me as a poorly person and started seeing me as a businesswoman.
"I couldn't have done any of this without Lorraine. We're total opposites, but we complement each other. She's supported me through some of my toughest times and been there as my confidante – now we're business partners.
"It's daunting to start a new business in your forties – but with Lorraine by my side, I always knew we'd make it work."

First Jerusalem Marathon hits City of Gold streets
Two days after bombing, more than 10,000 participants forecast for Friday's festivities in the Holyland capital.

The first-ever Jerusalem Marathon will go ahead as planned on Friday morning despite the terror attack that killed one woman and wounded 39 people on Wednesday afternoon when a bag exploded next to a bus stop across the street from the Jerusalem International Convention Center (Binyanei Ha'uma), near the capital's western entrance.
"Our answer to the murderous terrorists is that we will never stop running," Jerusalem mayor Nir Barkat said at the Marathon's gala dinner on Wednesday night.
"Jerusalem doesn't stop and won't stop. The real Jerusalem will be showcased in the marathon. A peaceful, happy and healthy city which is more beautiful than ever."
The world's holiest – and maybe hilliest – city will play host to the first-ever Jerusalem Marathon on Friday.
Over 10,000 runners from 40 countries worldwide will step off from the Knesset at seven o'clock in the morning, ending at Sacher Park.
Runners competing in the half-marathon, the 10- and 4.2- kilometer races, and the 400-meter charity race for the Shalva organization begin an hour after the full marathon.
Jerusalem has hosted a halfmarathon for the past two decades. Mayor Barkat, a veteran of five marathons, saw advantages to bringing the 26.2 mile (42 kilometer) race to his city after running the New York Marathon last year.
"The marathon is an important economic driving force for the city and will bring many runners and spectators to the capital," he said.
The marathon is likely to boost tourism, which has been improving steadily.
In 2010, Israel's capital met 3.5 million tourists, 26 percent more than the previous year.
The Municipality of Jerusalem announced that hotels are booked to capacity with 4,000 runners and journalists from the international media staying locally over the weekend.
"The city is proud to be the hosts for this truly historic event," said Uri Menachem, Director of the Jerusalem Sports authority.
Running in Jerusalem is about more than just the race itself. The views of 5,000+ years of history are "phenomenal" and "breathtaking," according to Barkat.
The race passes into the Old City and along its walls, Mount of Olives, Sultan's Pool, Ammunition Hill, and other sites.
For many runners, competing in the Holy City has a religious aspect as well.
"Running the marathon – whose origins lie in ancient Athens–in Jerusalem poetically symbolizes Jewish survival in the face of Hellenism and many other cultures that have assailed it," said New Yorker Marshall Huebner, who is running to raise money as part of a Yad Vashem/Blue Card joint team.
Three participants – one Jew, one Muslim, and one Christian–in the marathon will wear shirts that read "Three religions; One God."
For other runners, religion is what will get them through the marathon.
Friday's race will be the twentieth marathon for Lisa Jackson. The South African native who currently lives in London, England, runs in a summer dress and a flamingo hat as a form of entertainment for the crowd. She and her husband, Graham, are nervous about the course's difficulty.
"I'm going to need some help from above," Lisa said, pointing skyward.
"It's not as difficult as one would expect," Nir Barkat assured reporters at a dinner Wednesday night, stressing that his goal is to "put Jerusalem on the international marathon map."
Barkat plans to run the halfmarathon this year and hopes to run the full marathon next year, at the Second Jerusalem International Marathon on March 16th, 2012.
There was some worry in the wake of Wednesday's bombing, right across the street from where a pre-race Sports, Health and Leisure Exhibition was held.
However, Barkat and other local government officials assured runners and reporters at the Mamilla Hotel that the race would go on, as an indication of Israel's resilience and unwillingness to feel threatened by terrorists.
The mayor finished his remarks by honoring guest of honor Rosa Mota, one of the world's best runners in the 20th century, and other elite runners.
Elite runners this year will compete for the $11,500 in total prize money, to be divided between the top five finishers, and bonuses for men breaking 2:22:00 and women breaking 2:40:18.
There is $5,000 at stake for half-marathoners and $3,000 on the line for those running the 10-kilometer race.
On Thursday night, runners gathered for a pasta party, the traditional pre-marathon meal high in carbohydrates. A portion of the dinner was held by candle-light to raise awareness of global warming.
The marathon will be broadcast live along the route on screens and on television by Sport 1, beginning at 6:45 a.m.

FIH Report
Marijke Fleuren reported on the most recent meeting of the FIH Executive Board
The President reported that it would shortly be announced that the FIH EB had accepted unanimously to revert back to 6 v 6 for Hockey Indoor. It was also apparent that other innovations would be considered on the coming months.
The President also reported that a presentation was received on the future Event Portfolio. It was clear a lot of work had been done but a lot more was needed to do. The President stressed that we, as Europe, could offer 30 days of top Hockey for TV broadcasters. It is important therefore that our top events continue to be an integral part of any new portfolio.

Home > News > The consumer contracts (Information, cancellation and additional charges) regulations 2013
Ally Tow,
SENIOR ASSOCIATE - CHARTERED LEGAL EXECUTIVE
The consumer contracts (Information, cancellation and additional charges) regulations 2013
If you are a trader who sells goods, services or digital content to a consumer then these Regulations will apply to you.
These Regulations come into effect on 13 June 2014 and apply to all contracts made on or after that date, save for a few specific exceptions such as gambling, financial services and the rental of residential premises. They replace the existing The Consumer Protection (Distance Selling) Regulations 2000 and The Cancellation of Contracts made in a Consumer's Home or Place of Work etc Regulations 2008 which will cease to apply as from that date.
Traders' obligations
There are three types of agreement which a trader can enter into with a consumer. The type of contract and the traders' related obligations vary depending on whether the contract is signed at the traders' premises and/or whether the trader and consumer are both physically present at the time the contract is concluded.
The key obligations for traders are as follows:
(a) Before the consumer is bound by the contract, the trader must provide the consumer with certain information as set out in the Regulations together with a cancellation form, if applicable.
(b) Within a reasonable period of time after the conclusion of the contract but in any event not later than the time of delivery of the goods/before performance begins of any service supplied under the contract, the trader must give the consumer a copy of the signed contract or confirmation of the contract.
(c) In distance contracts, where the contract is concluded by electronic means, if the contract places the consumer under an obligation to pay, the trader must provide additional information to the consumer as set out in the Regulations and make it explicitly clear that acknowledgment of the order imposes an obligation on the consumer to pay. Where placing an order entails activating a button or similar function, the trader must ensure that this is labelled in an easily legible manner making it clear that there is an obligation to pay.
(d) In distance contracts, where the contract may be concluded by telephone, the trader must provide certain information to the consumer at the outset of the conversation and state the commercial reasons for the call.
Information to be provided by the trader
The information to be supplied varies depending on the type of contract. The key information to be supplied includes the following:
The main characteristics of the goods or services to be supplied/provided.
The identity of the trader including address and contact details.
The total price for the goods/services or, where the nature of the contract is such that the price cannot reasonably be calculated in advance, the manner in which the price is to be calculated.
Where applicable, any additional delivery charges.
Where applicable, the arrangements for payment, delivery, performance and the time by which the trader undertakes to deliver the goods or to perform the service.
Where applicable, the trader's complaints procedure.
In the case of a sales contract, a reminder that the trader is under a legal duty to supply goods that conform with the contract.
Where applicable, the existence and conditions of the after-sales services and commercial guarantees.
Where applicable, the duration of the contract or where the contract is of indeterminate duration or is to be extended automatically, the conditions for terminating the contract.
Where a right to cancel exists, the conditions, time limit and procedures for exercising that right together with details of any costs the consumer will have to bear if he chooses to ask the trader to proceed with the contract before the expiry of the cancellation period.
Where applicable, that the consumer will have to bear the cost of returning the goods in the case of cancellation and, for distance contracts, if the goods, by their nature, cannot normally be returned by post, the cost of returning the goods.
Where applicable, the existence of any relevant codes of conduct.
Where the consumer has a right to cancel, the trader must provide the consumer with a written form of cancellation notice. The relevant period for cancellation, the so-called "cooling-off" period" is 14 days from the date when the contract was concluded. No reason has to be given by the consumer for his cancellation.
If the consumer does cancel the contract during the cooling-off period, the trader has to reimburse all payments received by the consumer including the costs of delivery, save for supplementary costs if the consumer chose a specific type of delivery over and above that offered as standard by the trader.
The trader may be able make a deduction from the sum reimbursed for loss in value of any goods supplied in certain circumstances. The reimbursement, which must be made using the same method of payment as the consumer used for the initial transaction, must not be unduly delayed. The Regulations go on to set out the latest date on which the reimbursement should be made which vary depending upon whether the contract is for the sale of goods or supply of services and whether the goods/services have been delivered/performed, the goods returned by the time of the cancellation and/or if the goods are to be collected by the trader.
Additional payments/help-line charges
No payment is payable in addition to that agreed for the trader's main obligation unless, before the consumer became bound by the contract, the trader obtained the consumer's express consent – a pre-ticked box on a website would not amount to having obtained the consumer's "express consent".
Any telephone line operated by the trader for the purpose of allowing consumers to contact the trader in relation to contracts entered into with the trader must not result in a charge to the consumer which exceeds the basic rate telephone charges – premium rate telephone lines are now prohibited.
If the contract is a sales contract, unless the trader and consumer have otherwise, agreed, the contract is to be treated as including a term that the trader must deliver the goods to the consumer. Unless there is an agreed time or period, the contract is to be treated as including a term that the trader must deliver the goods without undue delay and in any event, not more than 30 days after the day on which the contract is concluded.
Failure to comply/offences
In most circumstances if a trader fails to comply with the Regulations, the consumer can normally treat the contract as being at an end and the trader will be obliged to reimburse any monies which the consumer has been paid. An officer, and/or body corporate, who fails to comply with the obligations under the Regulations may be also guilty of an offence and may, upon conviction, be liable to a fine of up to £5,000.00.
For further information, please contact our Dispute Resolution Team on 0118 952 7206 or submit an enquiry.
Consistent with our policy when giving comment and advice on a non-specific basis, we cannot assume legal responsibility for the accuracy of any particular statement. In the case of specific problems we recommend that professional advice be sought.

Venezuelan talks to resume in Oslo
Norway's foreign ministry announced during the weekend that it will host new talks aimed at resolving the conflicts that have turned Venezuela into what some experts now consider a "lawless country." Representatives for both sides later confirmed their presence.
The ministry, which already has hosted talks aimed at resolving the conflicts, announced that the main political players in Venezuela had "decided to return to Oslo" this week to continue the process facilitated by Norway.
"We reiterate our commitment to continue supporting the search for an agreed-upon solution between the parties in Venezuela," the ministry wrote. Foreign Minister Ine Eriksen Søreide repeated that Norway "commends the parties for their efforts and appreciates their disposition."
Disputed Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro has thanked Norway for its efforts to find a solution, while opposition leader Juan Guaido confirmed Sunday that he will be represented at the talks. Guaido has claimed that he's the rightful president of Venezuela.
"We will speak with both the Norwegian government and representaives for the regime," Guaido said in a prepared statement. He called the Norwegian initiative to seek peace "one of many. The talks will once again be held at an as yet undisclosed location.


'Whitey' The Kid: Bank Robber, Fugitive And Snitch In The '50s11:07
<iframe width="100%" height="124" scrolling="no" frameborder="no" src="https://player.wbur.org/news/2012/05/30/bulger-i"></iframe>
David BoeriTwitter
First in a two-part series. (Update: Here's Part 2.)
We have known since the 1990s that James "Whitey" Bulger was a secret FBI informant going back to the '70s. But thanks to newly obtained government documents, we now know Bulger started snitching on fellow criminals back in the 1950s.
Bulger's career would culminate with the corruption of the FBI and alleged murders of criminal informants following tips from agents who protected him. In all, Bulger is charged with 19 murders, although former associates say Bulger claimed to have killed far more than that.
As the 82-year-old Bulger heads toward a trial set for November, we have made some surprising discoveries about Bulger at age 26.
'Take My Hand, I'm A Stranger In Paradise...'
BOSTON — You want to put the era in perspective? Tony Bennett was young. The song "Stranger in Paradise" was new. That year, 1955, was closer in time to the Spanish-American War than to this November's trial date. And "Sonny" Bulger, as some people still called him, was stealing from the backs of trucks.
"Whitey's in his mid-20s," said former Boston Globe reporter Dick Lehr. "And tailgating is the stuff of teenagers."
Lehr and his fellow former Globe reporter Gerry O'Neill are writing the biography of James Bulger.
"He's got to move on to the new big thing, and at the time in the '50s, bank robbery was where the action was," Lehr said.
Starting that May, Whitey and his accomplices robbed banks in Pawtucket, Melrose and Hammond, Ind. He jumped onto bank counters, never bothered with a disguise, and pointed two guns when ordering everyone to the floor.
"It was one night in 1955, the first time I ever ran into Whitey," recalled retired Boston Police Detective Eddie Walsh. In 1955 he was a rookie cop; he's 90 now.
"Him and Stevie [Flemmi], they were bad guys, you know," Walsh said. "They were vicious guys, boy."
Bulger The Snitch
Steel-hard, stand-up, contemptuous of weakness, the last person in the world to ever rat someone out. Bulger's persona was forged of this for decades, until the late 1990s, when federal Judge Mark Wolf blew the image to bits by exposing Bulger as a protected, secret FBI informant set loose in the '70s.
But FBI files and prison records recently obtained by Lehr and O'Neill reveal that Bulger began ratting people out in 1956. I showed the files to Kevin Weeks, Bulger's surrogate son.
"Does it surprise you," I asked him, "that even back then he was ratting people out?"
"You know, if you had asked me that prior to the indictments of '94, '95, I would have said 'never,' " Weeks said.
But it's still news to Weeks that Bulger began snitching the same year Kevin was born. Weeks smiles at what the files reveal about the clever machinations of his former boss. They involve the young Bulger's Machiavellian use of his own girlfriend to get out of a jam.
Bulger had been a lady's man for a while, but now he was a bank robber and a lady's man, and he had a woman with him, a girlfriend two years older named Jacquie McAuliffe, who lived in Southie.

She read the FBI description of her in a 1956 warrant for his arrest: "Five foot, six inches, 118 pounds, blue eyes, platinum blonde hair, very attractive, model-type."
When the usually tight-lipped FBI is moved to employ an adverb, as in "very" attractive, you know she was striking.
"They are believed to be riding in a 1951 Oldsmobile 98," the warrant continues.
Jacquie and Jim traveled as Mr. and Mrs. Bulger. Back in Southie her married name was Martin and she had a 6-year-old daughter. Out on the road as Mrs. Bulger, she acted as a lookout from the backseat, according to the FBI, while Bulger and an accomplice named Richard Barchard robbed the Hoosier State Bank in Hammond, Ind., in November 1955. The outlaws celebrated in Chicago, but by January the FBI had a warrant for Whitey's arrest.
"If located, hold car and occupants... James J. Bulger is considered to be armed and dangerous," states the warrant.
Jacquie was now riding shotgun to a fugitive. She wasn't exactly Bonnie to his Clyde, but soon she would be doing his dirty work.
A good-looking, platinum blonde from Southie who loved dogs and a wanted man. Sound familiar? Forty years before dog-loving, attractive, platinum-blonde Catherine Greig of Southie rode off with Bulger on his second fugitive run, in 1996, there was Jacquie McAuliffe Martin.
Weeks, who had long observed this same female fascination for his boss, laughs again.
"They make movies about things like that: girls being attracted to the bad boy — the flash, the lifestyle, the money," he said.
Indeed, one of the enduring memories of Jacquie shared by a couple of Bulger's friends was of being called off their stoop in Southie one day in the mid-'50s and over to Bulger's car. In the backseat sat Jacquie draped in furs, the high-fashion flame of an uncaught bank robber who had a lot of disposable income.
Now that he was wanted, Bulger's hair was dyed black, perhaps by Jacquie, who listed her occupation as a hairdresser. Jim burned up the blacktop across the country with his platinum "paramour," as the bureau put it in the quaint language of the day.
On the car radio, they might have heard Tony Bennett singing, "Somewhere in space I hang suspended," from his his song "Stranger in Paradise."
Bulger's run to freedom that first time lasted just three months. In March 1956, FBI agents brought it to an end in Revere, where things often ended for mobsters. Jim went to jail and started snitching. Jacquie went to South Boston, but she would soon come back in a role as supportive as Catherine Greig would later play.
Cooperating With The FBI
"Bulger, after his apprehension, cooperated with this bureau," part of a written in an FBI report in July 1956.
Bulger admitted his own role and then told the bureau who his accomplices were in the two bank jobs that were still unsolved. But Bulger didn't want it on paper.
"He made these oral admissions but insisted that it not be put in writing," Lehr said.

The reason why is simple, said Weeks: "So that way there was no written statement or signature by him."
"So nobody can say he's ratting people out?" I asked.
"Correct," Weeks replied.
Yet Bulger made sure the FBI got the names of his accomplices on paper. And here's where Jacquie, the blond bombshell, comes back into the story: Whitey gives her up! That way she does the dirty work for him. After all, she had been along for the ride and she knows who Bulger's accomplices were. Weeks, who was Bulger's prize pupil, has it all figured out.
"The girl makes a written statement so nothing can be attributed to him," Weeks said. "He still has his reputation. No one can prove he's the actual one who gave up the two other people. It looks like it was her."
According to the FBI report of July 13, 1956, which would have been confidential, Bulger persuaded Jacquie "to cooperate with the bureau. As a result of her cooperation, process was obtained for Bulger's accomplices."
'I Thought We Were Friends'
Soon the FBI grabbed them, too. One of them was named William L. O'Brien. The other was named Richard Barchard. O'Brien was murdered back in the '60s, but I tracked Barchard down on the Gulf. He was far away, but wishing he was even farther.
Fifty-six years after the fact, I broke the news to him. I put it this way: "Would it surprise you if I told you she [Jacquie McAuliffe] was the one that gave you up to the FBI?"
"I respected him. He respected me. I didn't think he would ever run his mouth, but I guess he did."
Richard Barchard, ex-Bulger accomplice
"I don't know who gave me up," he replied. "But I mean, it's so long ago that it doesn't matter really."
I read Barchard the FBI report. He'd done 10 years in prison. He'd gone to the notorious penitentiary at Alcatraz — "The Rock," "Super Max" — because Bulger used Jacquie to give him up.
He remembered Jacquie well. After all, she was in the car acting as a lookout with Barchard's wife, Dorothy, back in November 1955, when Whitey jumped atop the counter with two guns and Barchard jumped over the counter to collect the money.
I tried to imagine Barchard hadn't ever figured out that Bulger ratted him out.
"Well I'm sorry to hear that," Barchard replied. "Because he didn't give me the impression he was that type of guy.
"Whitey and I got along good," he continued. "I respected him. He respected me. I didn't think he would ever run his mouth, but I guess he did."
That got a laugh from the 81-year-old, then a sad reflection.
"It's too bad, 'cause I thought we were friends."
That's a line a lot of people apparently didn't live to repeat. Bulger is charged with murdering 19 people, and Weeks told me Bulger claimed to have murdered twice that number.
It was 1956, and out on their cross-country run, or in prison, Bulger probably heard the Platters on the radio singing their Doo wop wonder, "Oh yes, I'm the great pretender." It was a hit song and it could have been his. Whitey wasn't yet a star, but he was already a snitch. The pattern was set.
For the outlaw and girlfriend, it was sunset — "Canadian Sunset," as another hit song would have serenaded them. They'd done New York, Miami, New Orleans, the Gulf Coast, Chicago and then California.
Have you heard of that itinerary before? It was the same pattern Bulger would repeat with the Jacquie 2.0 — Catherine Greig, in 1995.
Even sneaking back to Southie to pick up Catherine before hitting the fugitive road in 1995 was the sequel to picking up Jacquie for the same run in 1956. Only Jacquie was a white-haired grandmother now.
"Ever talk to the FBI?" a cop on her doorstep asked the white-haired Jacquie when she was in her 80s. "No, you're the first," she said. "I've been expecting someone to show up."
She could have given the bureau some tips. She could have told them how much Bulger loved California. She could have played "Where's Whitey" with them. After all, she had been there with him at the start, half a century ago.
And then Jacquie too was gone, more surely than any fugitive. She passed away in December 2010, when the world wondered if Whitey was dead or alive. By the time Bulger was cuffed, along with Catherine Greig in June 2011, Jacquie had joined most of those who were living when Whitey started making patterns in 1955.
In part 2, we look at newly uncovered documents that show that Bulger had connections to powerful Massachusetts political leaders in the 1950s, long before Bulger's brother, William, became politically prominent himself.

DIA, COLORADO- So banning Muslims from six countries instead of seven is supposed to ease legal concerns about religious discrimination?

DENVER, COLORADO- If your civil liberties have ever been violated by a cop, over your objections, only to have the officer say "See you in court", this victory is for YOU! On January 29 we were threatened with arrest for protesting the "Muslim Ban" at Denver International Airport. We argued that our conduct was protected speech and that they were violating our rights. They dismissed our complaints with, in essense: "That's for a court to decide." And today IT HAS! On Feb 15 we summoned the cops to federal court and this morning, Feb 22, US District Court Judge William Martinez granted our preliminary injunction, severely triming DIA's protest permit process. In a nutshell: no restrictions on signs, size of assemblies or their location within the main terminal (so long as the airport's function is not impeded). Permits are still required but with 24 hours advance notice, not seven days. Below is Judge Martinez' 46-page court order in full: Document 29 Filed 02/22/17 USDC Colorado IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLORADO Judge William J.

(ECF No. 1.) Currently before the Court is Plaintiffs� Motion for Preliminary Injunction, which seeks to enjoin Denver from enforcing some of its policies regarding demonstrations and protests at the Airport. (ECF No. 2.) This motion has been fully briefed (see ECF Nos. 2, 20, 21, 23) and the Court held an evidentiary hearing on February 15, 2017 (�Preliminary Injunction Hearing�). For the reasons explained below, Plaintiffs� Motion is granted to the following limited extent: �	Defendants must issue an expressive activity permit on twenty-four hours� notice in circumstances where an applicant, in good faith, seeks a permit for the purpose of communicating topical ideas reasonably relevant to the purposes and mission of the Airport, the immediate importance of which could not have been foreseen seven days or more in advance of the commencement of the activity for which the permit is sought, or when circumstances beyond the control of the permit applicant prevented timely filing of the application; ? �	Defendants must make all reasonable efforts to accommodate the applicant�s preferred demonstration location, whether inside or outside of the Jeppesen Terminal, so long as the location is a place where the unticketed public is normally allowed to be; ? �	Defendants may not enforce Denver Airport Regulation 50.09�s prohibition against �picketing� (as that term is
Thousands rally in Denver against wall and Muslim Ban
by Eric Verlo - February 5, 2017 February 5, 2017 0
DENVER, COLORADO- Thousands streamed into Civic Center Park to spend Saturday afternoon listening to speeches against President Trump's MUSLIM BAN. Lots of families with kids so I kept my sign on the fringe pointed outward. I don't usually favor profanity but this slogan was spotted at New York's JFK airport last Satruday, then replicated across the country the same weekend. I spotted several at the Denver rally AND in Colorado Springs, because I think, NOT TODAY MOTHERFUCKER says it best. Racism, bigotry and wanton abuse of power is obscene.
How I nearly got arrested for holding a sign at Denver International Airport
DIA, COLORADO- Last weekend I joined thousands across the country protesting Trump's executive order restricting entry visas from seven predominantly Muslim countries. Spontaneous demonstrations had erupted at international airports nationwide on Saturday January 27. Denver's airport was no exception but the lively gathering of sign holders was ultimately persuaded by police to leave the premises. Supposedly a permit was required to hold signs. Demonstrators the next day were quickly ushered outside, to rally instead between the terminal and adjacent lightrail station, where only a tiny fraction of travelers would see them. This much we knew as we monitored events online while we reconnoitered DIA from the short-term parking garage. We made our way swiftly to the International Arrivals doors at the north end of the main terminal WITH OUR SIGNS. International Arrivals The point was to reach immigrants, right? We walked to our intended protest spot unhindered and inconspicuous, because of course signs are not an unusual sight at an airport. Travelers who've been a long time away, in particular soldiers returning from deployment, are frequently greeted by family members holding signs. Often limo drivers have to page their corporate clients. We carried our placards with their message facing inward hoping they'd be mistaken for everyday signs. When we raised them above our heads we attracted immediate attention. They read "#NO MUSLIM BAN #NO REGISTRY, END WHITE PATRIARCHY" and "FIRST THEY CAME FOR THE MUSLIMS AND WE SAID: NOT TODAY MOTHERFUCKER." Immediately a man with a "DIA Operations" cap informed us that we weren't allowed to hold signs. We assured him the opposite was true. He called for backup. We weren't alone in front of International Arrivals. In addition to the families awaiting loved ones, there were a couple dozen law firm employees holding signs which read "Pro Bono Immigration Legal Services". We surmised that their presence might have already been negotiated with DIA. Soon a couple of those lawyers approached us to announce loudly that the public protest was outside the building and that we could continue there unmolested. We thanked them for their assistance but urged that they also clarify publicly that we were within our rights to stay inside as well. I was upset that their gravitas, as lawyers, was seen as supportive of the authorities telling us to stop. Police officers arrived in short order, a first one filming us with a digital point-and-shoot, then a second filming with a cell phone, both surely streaming to a command center. After six officers assembled, a sergeant approached us flanked by two DIA employees. She gave us our formal warnings. We were given instructions to "cease and desist" while we countered that we knew our rights. After a second warning we were assured that a third would mean our immediate arrest. We held our signs higher, all the while asserting their order was unlawful. The immigration lawyers huddled as far away from us as they could. Sgt. Virginia Quinones then got on her phone to consult somebody. I

Betchworth Castle
Betchworth Castle is a mostly crumbled ruin of a fortified medieval stone house with some tall, two-storey corners strengthened in the 18th century, in the parish of Brockham. It is built on a sandstone spur overlooking the western bank of the River Mole. The ruin is a Scheduled Ancient Monument and is surrounded by "Betchworth Park" Golf Course.
Legend has it that the castle is haunted by a black dog that prowls the ruins at night, and the Lord of the Manor who allegedly chased and killed an escaping convict with his sword. He later found out that it was in fact his own son he had killed and is said to now walk around the ruins in regret!
Brockham,
Betchworth
